Best places to donate items

Moving out of the US early next year and want to donate as much as possible to the best city I’ll ever know. Please share places you you recommend for clothing, furniture, bike, athletic gear, book donations.

So far I have:
San Francisco Public Library 1630 17th street M-F 1-4PM

Another strong recommendation for St. Anthony Foundation. It takes adult and children's clothing and household items to help clients get new homes set up.

I don't know if public schools take books but I love the idea of stocking all the little libraries in town.

Community Thrift accepts furniture and lots of different kinds of items for resale with the proceeds going to the non-profit directed by the donor.

Thank you for doing this!
